". . . it is necessary for us to have an understanding of God himself in the beginning. If we start right, it is easy to go right all the time; but if we start wrong, it is a hard matter to get right."
-- Joseph Smith, Nauvoo, Ill. April 7, 1844

Witness to Alpha and Omega (a poem)

Witness to Alpha and Omega

Among the Stars a brilliance did abideproclaiming to save despite our pride;The God of Love did arise.He went to minister to the WorldWith Power and Glory in his words.Chosen apart with Truths divine,Away with many devils he did drive.Taken by the people he wanted prepared,fullfilled in blood and water promises.Lifted high on timber and left alone,The dove and whale become like oneSaving masses and losing none.

A leader of men killed by murderwhen in pain he fell down madlythrough a window he did meander.Hands of law had reached beyond crimeAnd grasped a prophet, no tears cried.Seeing visions of Gold and AngelsHe witnessed the greatness of another.Words were taught from open HeavensHelping to escape the walls of Hell.Sent to organize on this world endlessPromises of Priesthood eternalfrom the God of Love to all everything.
